Application filed July 25, 1927. Serial No. 208,146.

This invention relates to improvements in the construction of gasoline stoves of the type usually referred to as camp stoves.

Stoves of the type to which this invention relates comprise a casing within which is located'a burner assembly to which gasoline is supplied from a tank in which it is stored under pressure. Stoves of this type are ordinarily employed by campers and it is there fore necessary that they shall be constructed in such a manner that they can be readily transported. In order to make it possible to easily transport the stove it is desirable that the tank containing the fuel shall be so attached to the other parts that it can be placed within the casing during transport-ation. In order that the tanks can be placed within the casing in the manner above indicated, it has been customary to make the tanks of small capacity with the result that they contain only a limited amount of fuel and must be refilled at frequent intervals.

It is the object of this invention to produce a stove construction which will make it possible to employ a much larger fuel tank than has heretofore been used, without materially increasing the size of the casing.

This invention, briefly described, consists in a casing of the usual construction but of considerable depth. To one side of this casing a burner assembly has been attachedby means of a plurality of links which makes it possible to move the burner assembly longitudinally and transversely of the casing. This makes it possible to move the burners to the center of the casing when they are in operation and to move them over towards one side during transportation, by this means it is possible to obtain sufficient space within the casing to accommodate a large fuel tank without unduly increasing the size of the casing".

Having thus briefly described my invention, I will now proceed to describe the same in detail and reference for this purpose will be had to the accompanying drawings in which the preferred embodiment of the in vention has been illustrated, and in which:

Fig. 1 is a top plan view of my improved stove, portions thereof being broken away to better disclose the construction;

Fig. 2 has top plan view showing the parts in the position that they occupy during transportation; 1

Fig. 3 is a section taken on line 3-3, Fig.

1, portions being shown in section and other parts broken away;

at is a bottom view of some of the parts shown in Fig. 3, taken in the directionof arrow 1 in Fig. 3;

Fig. 5 is a section taken on line 5-5, Fig; 1; and

Fig. 6 is a section taken on line 6-6, Fig. 1.

In the drawings numeral 1 indicates the bottom of the casing, and 2, 2 indicates the end members of the casing. The side walls have been indicated by numeral 3. Hingedly connected to the upper edge of one of the side walls, is a cover 1. The side wallto which the cover is attached will be referred to as the rear well, while the corresponding side wall on the opposite side will be referred to as the front side.

Secured to the inner surface of the front side of the casing are spaced brackets 5, These brackets are preferably secured to the casing by means of rivets 6 and have their upper ends'bent rearwardly in the manner indicated by reference numeral 7. Connected to eachof the projecting ends 7 by means of.

10 and the side 3 will always form a parallelo 7 gram. A short link 12 is pivoted to each of the pivots 11 and has its outer end secured by means of a rivet 13 to a bracket 14:. This bracket is provided with outwardly extending ends 15 and cooperates with a clamp 16 by means'of which manifold 17 of the burner assembly is secured to the ends of links 12. The burner assembly comprises the manifold 17 and two burners 18, one of which is secured to each end of the manifold. A mixing chamber 19 is secured to the manifold at a point intermediate the burner. A bar 20 is secured to the ends 15 of the brackets 14 by means of theclamping bolts 21.] This bar extends parallel with the manifold and has'its end twisted asindicated at 22 so as to hem a plane at right angles to theplane of the bar. The outer end of the twisted portion'ha's been indicated by numeral 23 andthis is 'bent so that it extends perpendicularly to the axis of the manifold,Fig. l; Secured to the end 23 by means of a bolt 24: is a bracket having three free ends of the other pair being pivotally connected with the burner assembly.

2. A camp stove comprising, in combination, a casing, a burner assembly located within the casing and supporting means for the burner assembly, said means comprising two pairs of pivotally connected links the free ends of one link of each pair being pivotally connected to the casing and the free end of the other link of each pair being pivotally connected with the burner-assembly.

A camp stove comprising, in combination, a casing, a burner assembly located within the casing and supporting means for the burner assembly, said means comprising two pairs of pivotally connected links the free ends of one link 01'? each pair being pivotally connected to the casing and the free end of the other link of each pair being pivotally connected With the burner assembly and a rigidlink connecting the pivots for each pair.

4. A camp stove of the class'described, comprising, in combination, a casing having a bottom, two sides and two ends, a pair of links attached to the inside of the casing side Wall by means of pivots which permit the links to swing in a plane parallel with the bottom, a link pivoted to the free end of each of thefirst mentioned links, a link connecting the last links.

In testimony whereof I afl'ix my signature.
